Metallic Epoxy Flooring in Winfield, IL

Metallic epoxy flooring for Winfield homes and businesses: a hand-worked, high-gloss resin floor on a dark or a light base, chosen for what it does to the room above it and installed by our own crew.

Metallic epoxy, and the dark or light question

Metallic epoxy is a self-leveling resin with metallic mica pigments mixed through it, poured over ground and primed concrete and worked by hand while it is wet, so the pigment drifts and settles into depth as the resin cures. A clear, glossy topcoat seals it. Every metallic floor sits on a base color, and whether that base is dark or light is the first thing that shapes it.

For a Winfield home it suits a finished lower level, a family room, a hall, a home office or a bar, and it works just as well in an office or a shop. It is an indoor floor, and it suits a room the owner wants to feel finished rather than covered.

Dark or light, the finished floor is seamless and high gloss, with the look of marble, stone or liquid metal and a reflection that changes as you walk across it. Dark and light metallic floors we have poured are on our gallery.

Why choose a metallic floor over carpet or laminate

Carpet on a lower-level slab can hold moisture and odor, and laminate swells when water gets under it. A metallic floor is bonded to the concrete and sealed on top, so it has nothing to soak up water and nothing to lift, and it looks like stone rather than a covering.

It goes on the slab you already have. The concrete is ground, repaired and primed and the resin poured straight onto it, so there is no demolition and no subfloor to build, and the self-leveling resin evens out small dips as it goes down.

And it gives the house something back. A metallic floor enhances property value, and in a lower level or a family room it turns a plain concrete slab into a worthwhile investment rather than a space nobody finishes.

The benefits, whichever base you choose

Easy upkeep. The floor is seamless and non-porous, so dust, spills and pet hair sit on top and come off with a sweep and a damp mop, with no grout and no waxing. A dark floor shows dust sooner and a light floor hides it, which is the one practical difference between them.

Tough in everyday use. The system resists impact, abrasion, scratches, chips and chemicals, so furniture, toys and a home gym corner do not wear through the pattern. Where the floor needs more grip, an anti-slip agent can be added to the final coat.

Protected underneath and on top. Grinding, repair and moisture control before the pour prevent peeling and bubbles, which matters most on a lower-level slab, and the UV-resistant topcoat keeps a light floor from yellowing near a window. The finish is low odor, low VOC and pet friendly, and it is built so you can look back in 15 to 20 years and still have an amazing floor.

Dark base or light base, and the pigments over it

A dark base, graphite or near black with pearl or bronze worked through it, gives the most depth and drama and suits a media room, a bar or a room with plenty of light to spare. It makes a large room feel more enclosed and a well-lit room feel rich.

A light base, pearl or white with graphite veining, reads like marble, opens a room up and bounces light around a lower level with small windows. It is the calmer of the two and the easier one to live with in a room used every day.

Over either base, the pattern can be worked toward marble, granite, stone, liquid metal, wood or water, in custom blends as well as pearl, bronze and graphite. Every metallic floor is finished in high gloss under a clear topcoat that resists yellowing and wear, which is what makes metallic suit rooms lit artificially.

What the grind does under a dark or light floor

Mechanical grinding comes first on every floor. It takes off old paint, carpet glue, stains and dirt and opens the pores of the concrete so the primer can bond, and the slab is ground evenly so the gloss has a sound, uniform surface under it.

Cracks, holes and divots are filled and ground flush. A dark, glossy floor shows every ripple in the light, and a light floor shows a shadow over any repair that sits proud, so the fill is ground dead flat either way.

Moisture control prevents peeling and bubbles, which is why it matters most on a lower-level slab. Joints are treated and edges along walls, stairs and doorways are ground as carefully as the middle, so the floor finishes cleanly at every edge.

Laying the base coat and working the pigment

A primer rolled into the ground concrete fuses into it and gives a bond that will not peel. Then the metallic base coat, dark or light, is poured: industrial resin tinted with the chosen pigment.

While the base coat is wet, our installers manipulate the pigment by hand to get the depth and movement agreed, lighter veins across a dark base or a darker drift through a light one.

A clear, glossy topcoat goes over everything once the metallic coat has cured. It is UV resistant, resists yellowing and wear, and protects the pattern for the life of the floor.

Winfield homes and rooms this floor goes into

Winfield is a village of houses more than businesses, from older homes near the center to the subdivisions built around them, and the rooms a metallic floor suits here are mostly in those homes: finished lower levels, family rooms, halls, home offices and bars. We pour metallic floors in homes and businesses across Winfield and the neighboring DuPage suburbs.

Our shop is in Roselle and our own installers do the work, not subcontracted crews. The business is owned and operated by a Marine Corps veteran, licensed and insured, and backs each floor with an extended warranty on craftsmanship.
